Actually, "On" is a top 40 track, at least in the UK. I think it made it to #29 or something. Shite? Well, that's up to the listener...

Hurrah! Another "this music is GOOD(tm)" debate! ;-)

Obviously, you have never been a real record collector. You spend a lot of time and money to find a rare recording, because it's an inspiring challenge. A couple of months later that recording is flooding the country and you basically trip over a copy every time you leave the house. Of course you get upset because you wasted a lot of time and money. - chris@minsk.docs.uu.se
